Closet space in the units varies. One of the 1-bedroom plans lacks a hall closet. Some of the baths have dual-bowl vanities and some have stall showers. Bedrooms in the 2- and 3-bedroom units are side-by-side rather than split for privacy. Bedroom windows in several of the floor plans face into a light-well.

The location

Madison Aberdeen Place is located on a pedestrian-friendly stretch of Madison Street lined with low-rise buildings, bars, restaurants and local service establishments. It’s a pleasant environment with a strong neighborhood feel.

Shopping. Residents at Madison Aberdeen Place have a good variety of grocery shopping options, including a recently-opened Target three blocks south.

The new Mariano’s less than a half-mile east of Madison Aberdeen Place has been generating a lot of positive buzz and drawing crowds to its large selection of prepared foods and craft beers. Jewel-Osco also has a location nearby.

Tribeca is across the street from Madison Aberdeen Place. You’ll find the occasional boutique and gallery in the neighborhood, but retail venues are fairly scarce. State Street shops, anchored by Macy’s, are a mile-and-a-quarter east.

Dining, nightlife. The West Loop is an almost indescribably-rich dining and nightlife venue.

The thriving Randolph Street restaurant corridor, a few blocks north, draws tourists and locals to options that range from the grand to the casual. The annual Taste of Randolph street fair is a great way to sample what they have to offer.

Parks, recreation. The location has good proximity to public parks and recreational opportunities.

The more than 7-acre Skinner Park, three blocks from the property, has a children’s playground, baseball fields, basketball courts, an athletic field for football or soccer and hosts popular events including Movies in the Parks. There’s also a full complement of facilities, including a pool, field house and tennis courts, at the 13-acre Union Park, several blocks further west.
